Approximately
8 cups popped

Approximately

Note:
Premium popcorns have larger
kernels, resulting in a higher yield of popcorn.
If using premium popcorn, the yield of popped
popcorn will be about 1 cup greater than stated
above.
Note: DO NOT use more than
1

cup of
unpopped kernels when using premium

The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are endless.
Just add your favorite seasoning combined with
melted butter and pour through flavor chute as the
finished popcorn is mixing.
Note: Serving bowl should not be put
into oven.
It is very important to use fresh popcorn. If your
popcorn is old, the kernels will not fully pop and/
or it may take a long time for them to pop.
The Cuisinart EasyPop Plus makes delicious
caramel popcorn for you and your family. We
provide two great recipes for you to try. Due
to the high temperature of caramel, there are
certain guidelines that need to be followed:
• Always use caution when making caramel and
then pouring into your popper.
• Always use a candy thermometer to ensure your
caramel is at the proper temperature.
• Caramel should not exceed 300°F when pouring
into the flavor dispenser of the EasyPop Plus.
• We recommend adding liquid such as cream to
the caramel to slightly cool to the proper pouring
temperature.
• Do not exceed
2
/
3
cup of caramel for pouring into
your popcorn maker.
• Always use the slotted side of the flavor dispenser
for pouring caramel.
Butter/seasoning ratios for popcorn
2 tablespoons melted butter for ¼ cup
unpopped kernels, and a minimum of
1 teaspoon of seasoning
3 tablespoons melted butter for
1
⁄
3
cup
unpopped kernels, and a minimum of
2 teaspoons of seasoning
4 tablespoons melted butter for ½ cup
unpopped kernels, and a minimum of
2½ teaspoons to a tablespoon of seasoning
Note:
The amount of seasoning depends on the
intensity of the ingredients you are using –
it is important to let your taste and our recipes
be your guide.
When adding ingredients through the flavor
dispenser, we recommend adding thin liquids like
oils and melted butter through the shaker side,
and thicker liquids like
caramel through the
slotted side. Some
larger items, such as
nuts, grated cheese
and thick sauces like
pesto, should be added
directly through the top
of the bowl with the flavor chute removed.
(Add dry ingredients, like salt and spices, last,
through the unused side.) On caramel and other
items requiring melting or heating, allow 30 to 60
seconds before adding.
